It turns out Pink reads some of her social mentions. And she isn't shy about replying.

Early Wednesday morning, someone on Twitter called the singer "so old that she should be named Purple." Pink was quick to give the troll a piece of her mind.

"You must be from la. Well, there are a few people left in the world that choose to age naturally. And I’ve earned every (expletive) minute of my 38 years," she tweeted. "I shall call you little purple troll," she determined, before proceeding to do an impressive spin, midair, on silks. We imagine.

She continued in a separate tweet: "I am of the mindset that it’s a blessing to grow old. That if your face has lines around your eyes and mouth it means you’ve laughed a lot. I pray I look older in 10 years, cause that will mean I’m alive."

The message about graceful aging earned more than 68,000 likes and 10,000 retweets. One supportive fan told Pink that he'd come out to see her perform and do aerial stunts even when she's 80. Pink replied to him, "I’ll call it 'the wrinkles and rolls tour.' "

For more motivational words from Pink, here's a look back at the empowering speech she gave at the MTV VMAs this year.

I am of the mindset that it’s a blessing to grow old. That if your face has lines around your eyes and mouth it means you’ve laughed a lot. I pray I look older in 10 years, cause that will mean I’m alive. 🤙🏼
